All these varieties work well in seedling culture, under mulch and temporary shelters, in open ground and greenhouses. They give a good harvest of tasty, juicy and sweet fruits. It is better to form two stems, and it is imperative to normalize the ovary in the brush. When pinching, the plants are not only given by stepchildren, but also bifurcated shoots - you cannot immediately understand what needs to be cleaned, this creates slight inconveniences. The fruits of these varieties are very beautiful and very tasty. Plucked ripe, they do not lie for a long time, although their skin is thick. We leave 4-5 brushes on each stem. We do not pluck out the lower ovaries, but give the opportunity to grow to all fruits, the weight of which ranges from 250 to 500 g. Of course, using various agricultural techniques, fewer ovaries could be left on these varieties, resulting in larger tomatoes weighing from 600 to 1000 g everyone.

Caring for them is usual - feeding, forming bushes, garters, watering, protection from pests and diseases. And all this must be done on time. You miss it, and all this will immediately affect the harvest. Of course, we have many favorite varieties of tomatoes, but I decided to talk about those that have been stored in our "varietal piggy bank" of tomatoes for many years and have confirmed their best qualities for a long time.
